    Summary

    Holding the front line of the Black Tide is a war effort that only Mydei could ever accomplish as a demigod.

    For all the power, and none of the glory, it doesn’t change the loneliness that comes from the isolation. When the war starts to get into Mydei's head, he knows there's only one person who can take him out of it. Phainon knows what he needs, but each meeting draws them closer and closer to the end of the Flame Chase, and the pleasure is only temporary.

    And each time, Mydei wonders when it will be the last.

    Summary

    No sex. No knots. No claiming bites.

    Three simple rules that Kaveh lays out when Alhaitham experiences a rut for the first time in years after missing a dose of his suppressants. Sure, he could leave, but Kaveh feels it would be unfair to leave him in this state. He’ll help him. Just this once. Just enough to get through his rut.

    Nevermind all those feelings still simmering… it won’t get in the way, certainly.

    Summary

    Sunday wanted to party with Aventurine. That was …strange. The man was suspiciously euphoric, in a suspiciously good mood and wanted Aventurine to take him to an establishment the gambler frequented. That sudden onslaught of euphoria, the jitters in the wings that Sunday probably didn’t notice, those were signs that twisted Aventurine’s guts in anxiety. He agreed to go with Sunday, because he’d rather have an eye on a man who was only barely sane, than let him go out and find his own fun, possibly inviting more danger.

    Once Sunday went back to his own desk in the open plan office, far away enough that his weird mind magic shouldn’t reach Aventurine anymore, Aventurine sent, lightning-quick, a direct message to Veritas, “How do I know someone’s gonna kill themselves today?”
